About this property

Sitzmark townhome at Purgatory - Awesome views - Steps to slopes

Our 4 bedroom, 3.5 bath townhome (Unit 13) is located in the Sitzmark Building at Purgatory Resort and offers convenience in all seasons. This is a slope side retreat right at the base of one of Purgatory’s favorite runs, Lower Hades (just walk up to the Lower Hades run from the townhome). Ski down to the high-speed six pack in the morning, and ski right back to the Sitzmark complex in the afternoon. In spring, summer and fall, mountain biking and hiking trails are just the other side of the front door.

The townhome offers plenty of space for multiple families and features an open floor plan. There are tons of games/puzzles for your enjoyment and the condo also features parking for 2 vehicles at the unit, fully stocked kitchen (including an Insta-pot), washer and dryer, WIFI and a gas grill..

Bed Configuration:
Master - King (Third floor)
2nd - King (Second floor)
3rd - Queen (Second floor)
4th - Bunks Beds (2) - Single over Single (Ground floor)

This home is pet friendly! We allow a maximum of 2 dogs max and the pet fee is $40/day (for a max $250 per stay).

The 4% resort fee included in the quote is the required resort fee that must be charged and does not allow access to the Durango Mountain Club. For an additional (and optional) 4% resort fee, you will have access to the Durango Mountain Club which includes an outdoor heated pool with slide, outdoor hot tub and workout facility. When booking, just advise if you would like us to add the additional 4% resort fee.

Book at least a week and a 10% discount is automatically applied (Excludes Christmas/New Years).

Stay with us and we offer DISCOUNTS on both summer (white water rafting, horseback riding etc.) and winter (ski/snowboard rentals, sleigh rides, snowmobile tours etc.) activities.

Please note that, like most properties in the area, this home does not have AC, as it is uncommon for homes at this elevation. Temperatures inside the property are easily managed by using fans and opening the windows at night when temperatures drop into the 40s.

Fantastic location, well-appointed condo for our family ski vacation. The hot tub is off site and only available with an extra fee. The bedrooms are on three different floors with lots of stairs which was tough with a toddler and an elderly person with sore knees.

Thank you for staying with us, and for completing a review! We were happy to host you and your group. We are so glad to hear that you had an amazing stay. The "off-site" hot tub amenity is 150 yards away, at the Purgatory Lodge building. The bedrooms are listed in the listing as being on 3 different floors, per the Bed Configuration shown in the listing description. We look forward to having you stay with Vacation Rental Collective again in the future!

The boot warmers were crucial. Although you can ski into the cabin, we ended up driving to the base every morning as it’s easier with all of the things and small kids. Definitely add in the access to the Durango mountain club if you have kids. We enjoyed sitting in the hot tub and letting them play in the pool every evening. Firewood is provided, but pick up some kindling or starter sticks in town id you want a fire in the evening. Bring your own EVOO, pepper, spices, etc. they have a kettle for coffee and tea. They provide trash bags, laundry pods, paper towels, tp, dishwasher detergent, dish soap, hand soap and a small amount of shampoo, conditioner and body lotion.

Thank you so much for taking the time to share such a thoughtful and detailed review! We’re glad the boot warmers, hot tub, and Durango Mountain Club access were such a hit—especially with kids after long ski days. We also appreciate you pointing out the tips for future guests; that kind of insight is incredibly helpful. It sounds like you made the most of the space, and we’d absolutely love to welcome you and your family back again anytime!

Great morning view

This is the second time staying here, my 4th year in Durango and it has been a great time each year. The rooms are on different levels which makes it easier with my teens. There are tons of utensils, cups and pots/pans. I love all the space the loft has. We had a grill for steaks with the family. Thank you for being a great host for my family & I.

Great place for dogs but 3 flights of stairs

We rented this property because we have dogs. It was great to have the back running area for them in the snow. But at 60, three flights of stairs was too much. The property is clean and has a great view.

Amazing view of Engineer Mountain

We had an amazing time at Purgatory once again! The living room area had upgraded sofas that were not shown on the original photos so that was a nice surprise. The master suite had a bidet. The townhouse is a great ski in/ski out location. Each bathroom had a small care package which we loved. The kitchen had everything we needed and more. VRC was very responsive the entire time.

Spacious condo, great views

The condo was very large and we had plenty of room for 6 adults to relax after a day of on the slopes. Communication with the property manager was easy and quick. Our only advice to the property manager would be to consider replacing the dishwasher in the unit with a better one and maybe giving all the dishes a deep clean.

Great time!

The condo was great. The only thing we were disappointed in was it was listed as a ski in ski out but there was still a hike up the hill to a run in the morning and then a hike back down when going in. We were expecting to be able to just step out the door and go. Other than that it was very enjoyable.

Response from VrboOwner on 24 June 2023
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review! We do list it as ski-in/out to help guests know how close it is to the slopes. Even buildings you have to take an elevator to the slope are listed this way as they are technically slopeside. The rear deck of this property is next to the slope. Other than that, we are so glad you enjoyed your stay! It was an absolute pleasure to host you and we hope you come stay with us again soon :)

Great spot for snowplay

We had a great time staying here. At the back of the house is a deck with a grill and seating and a large area for kids to have snowball fights, build a snowman, and go sledding. Plus you can ski in ski out, what could be better! The house itself has plenty of space for two families. The bathrooms were a little tight but we made it work. It has everything you need for a week vacation. Tip - have your groceries delivered through Instacart and save yourself so much time! The property management company was very responsive and helpful. I would highly recommend this place if you're planning to visit Purgatory in the winter. It's probably great in the summer too. Just know that there's not a lot of amenities at Purgatory, you have to drive to Durango for shops, groceries, and restaurants.
